If you couldn't have a TVR, what would you buy ?

[tuscan_s]

If I couldn't have my Tuscan then....

a Noble M12!

Realistically (in order):

Noble M12 GTO
Ferrari 355
Porsche 911 (993)

I thought we were talking realistically?

My 'realistically' is definitely not Roadsweeper's 'realistically' ...

If no TVR I'd have a Sunbeam Tiger Mark II ... 4.2V8 I think ...

[christof]

No problem for me ...

I WILL BUY THE FACTORY and will drive a TVR again pretty soon ...

Christof

[kevinday]

Porsche 993 or AC Cobra

[Podie]

Hmm... Noble M12 GTO would be high on the list, but I'd fancy something "different"... perhaps a Venturi...

[grigio alloy]

Ferrari 360 Spider (with Hamann Tuning)
OR
the new, for next summer, 911 Turbo cabrio (to be later breathed on by Sportec)
Car to go shopping in Audi S3

[plotloss]

Similar money or less

Jensen SV-8 Coupe
Morgan Aero-8
Jensen Interceptor FF

Money no object

288 GTO
F355 F1 Spyder
Murcielago
Vanquish

[lrussell5]

20-30k: Elise 111S
30-40k: used 993 coupe
40-50k: Noble
50-60k: Maserati GT3200
60-100k: Stripped 911 (RS/GT2/3 etc) or SL55 AMG
100k+: 360 spyder

Better try and make some more money...

[tivhead]

Money no object: Bugatti 16/4 Veyron

Realistically: Porsche 911

[Pepsi_x]

Jenson Interceptor 7.2
AC Cobra
Aston Martin Vanquish
Jag E-Type V12

realistically though....probably a Boxster...did I say that out loud?

[David White]

How about a BWM M Roadster? It's got 321bhp, 0-60 in 5.3, a nicely ballanced drive, doesn't go wrong but comes with stacks of warrenty, electric hood (that works), CD player (that you can hear) and you can use it every day, making it an ideal second car to your TVR!

[mavrick]

I'll just have a Vindaloo ... hotter than all of them !

[thirsty]

I would resign myself to the inevitable and purchase a Prescott family car (Micra 1.0)

[davemorton_eunos]

My old Eunos Roadster Nothing like it for handling and grin factor. (Hmm nostalgia creeping in here)

Failing that a bike engined Westy.

That said hope I can keep the Griff for a while yet

That's a tricky one since I've always lusted after the TVR brand and can't see myself driving anything else. There is nothing out there in the 35-55k range that would satisfy me, possibly a second hand Ferrari 355 or Aston Martin DB7 but these would only be temporary solutions until I could afford one of the following:

Lister Storm GTL
Lamborghini Murcielago
Jaguar XJ220
Ferrari F60
Pagani Zonda
Mercedes GT (the £1million one)

A few years work in any of them though!

[JMorgan]

Havn't a clue. Whatever I can get for the price of a 400 as I am a poor sod. Sunbeam? Or an Oxford

[Schazzar]

Phantom F4, unlike those people with those zertec adds-ons...strapped to their cerbies et al. Its got real afterburners.........

Ultima, Noble M12 GTO.

Nothing else takes my fancy really, 911 Carrera RS for track days I suppose...

[trefor]

For me it would have to be a Caterfield type car or something really big, rude and politically incorrect, such as a big block American heap (or a GMC Typhoon maybe.)

(Heading off the Santa Pod now to drool over the muscle cars).
